Default New m3s..

How quick are the new m3s? A friend of mine is supposed to be getting one in a few weeks and he is talking crazy **** already! I'm pretty sure he should whoop up on my very easily, but i plan on putting in a nitrous kit, running 100 shot in a few weeks. Whats yalls opinion? Sorry for the whole bench racing bs.

Oh no ****? You would think for over $60k they would be alot quicker. I don't think he's a good driver either..

msrp on them is only like 54k. saying over 60k is like saying ur gt is over 30k.

either way, you are talkin bout a different class of car. so for double your money you are getting a car thats going to ride better, be faster, get similar mileage and unfortunately probably get more chicks lol.

with that said, id never own another bmw in my life

If you have the 100 shot then you've got nothing to worry about. Without it I think he has you. But I dont think he'll have you by very much.

I was surprised actually when I heard how slow the M3's are... I guess I was expecting too much from them. The M5's on the other hand... Those are nice

Yeah. I love the m5's. They aren't that quick either, but i understand they are a family sedan. A few of them at the track were running mid-high 12s.

Stock Vs Stock, it'll hand you your ***. Like everyone else has said spray and you should be a low to mid 12 second car And pull out a win.
